Notchy gear shift.
well I got my tsb done a long time ago.. So I suspect I have about 60k or less on the new clutch then 
I have the notchiness occasionally in gears above 2nd... its happened maybe a handful of times and it goes away

It is the original clutch and I am at 90K. Mostly the notchiness is at lower speeds or stand still if this helps. I have been to 2 track events and a bunch of mountain drives. I already changed my fluids to Redline MTF. It is actually 80W instead of 90W. I just hope it isn't the tranny that is notchy.

At a standstill, you aren't moving, not driving, not shifting.

"Notchy" transmission is a description of the shifting feel. How can it be "notchy" if you are at a "standstill"?

Please explain

I dunno about you... but when I'm at a standstill and need to get going I have to shift at that "standstill" into first or reverse to create fwd or reverse motion.

The act of "shifting" is going from one gear to another while accelerating or decelerating.
Putting the car into gear is something you do when the car is stopped and it is in neutral (or "out of gear").
